Butterfly Style by Bianca Sommerland

Freedom has always been a priority for Kelsey “Chicklet”
Galloway. From choosing bartending over a ‘real’ career, to avoiding monogamy
like the plague, she’s always paved her own way, living her life in a way that
makes her happy. As a Domme she is content to give a lucky sub—or two—a night
to remember, but she’s never met anyone who made her consider sharing her
carefree world.

Until she meets a woman who desperately needs a little taste of it.

Officer Laura Tallant has her whole life in order, is looking at a promotion on
the police force in Halifax, Nova Scotia, and finally has some time off for a
much needed vacation. When her plan to find some release with her former Master
falls through, she’s left searching for an alternative. And finds one that
fulfills more than her desire to escape reality for a brief, blissful moment.

Chicklet makes her feel more alive than anyone she’s ever known, but nothing about
her follows the rules of what Laura is supposed to want. The last time Laura
put her heart on the line, she was left broken and alone. A chance at love
might rip open old scars. Or give her a safe place to finally let them heal.

Warning: Contains sex, a boy toy or two,
and scenes of consensual BDSM. Also language. Intended for adult audiences.

Author’s note: This is the story of how Chicklet and Laura’s relationship
began, which takes place before Game
Misconduct (The Dartmouth Cobras #1). There are scenes involving characters
from the other books, but it can still be read as a standalone. The hockey is
light in this book, but I still consider it a Cobra novella because Chicklet’s
earned her place as an honorary member over the years. Any woman who can handle
the trouble triplets deserves that at very least! lol

Ruthie – ☆☆☆☆☆
What an absolutely lovely read. It put a number of things from other books into
context, as well as being both sweet and sexy. You would really need to have
read the series to get the full impact – but actually as a short story about
the D/s lifestyle and two rather enigmatic women, it works well too.

I was never a Laura fan before, but this made her behaviours make more sense,
and the care that Chicklet takes with her is so beautifully written. I couldn't
stop turning the pages to learn more about the start of their very intense and
sensual relationship. The difference that trust makes in creating a meaningful
dynamic is clear in every scene.

Loved it, but it did whet my appetite for more... so I do hope Ms. Sommerland is
busy writing!

Tell you about me? Hmm, well, there’s not much to say. I love hockey and cars
and my kids…not in that order of course! Lol! When I’m not writing—which isn’t
often—I’m usually watching a game or a car show while networking. Going out
with my kids is my only downtime. I get to clear my head and forget everything.

As for when and why I first started writing, I guess I thought I’d get extra
cookies if I was quiet for a while—that’s how young I was. I used to bring my
grandmother barely legible pages filled with tales of evil unicorns. She told
me then that I would be a famous author.
